Written by Reginald Rose

Directed by David Ivers

Key Characters:

Foreman of the Jury: A small, petty man who is impressed with the authority he has and handles himself quite formally, played by Larry Bull.

Juror #2: A meek, hesitant man who finds it difficult to maintain any opinions of his own, played by Kipp Moorman.

Juror #3: A very strong, forceful and extremely opinionated man within whom can be detected a streak of sadism, played by Max Robinson.

Juror #5: A frightened young man, played by Steve Wojtas.

Juror #6: An honest but dull-witted man who comes upon his decisions slowly and carefully, played by Michael Harding.

Juror #9: A mild, gentle old man, long since defeated by life, and now merely waiting to die, played by Fredric Stone.

Juror #10: An angry, bitter man who antagonizes almost at sight, played by Roderick Peeples.

Juror #11: A refugee from Europe, Juror #11 speaks with an accent and is ashamed, humble, almost subservient to the people around him, played by Joe Vincent.

Juror #12: A slick, bright advertising man who thinks of human beings in terms of percentages, graphs and polls, played by Christopher R. Ellis.

Synopsis:

On a sweltering August night in New York City, the jury files into the deliberation room. The door is locked behind them. Now twelve nameless men from twelve varied backgrounds must decide the fate of a young man accused of killing his father. Faced with playing the executioner, these dozen men must first face themselves, their biases, and their own sense of justice. This American classic will have you on the edge of your seat until the final verdict is announced.
